5. Artist's Suggestion, An Unlikely Union - We return to the Dieselpunk setting of Tyrodas where the West Empire of Kalcyria and the Paralaesian National Coalition have fought a stalemate war for as long as the history books can recall. Although there are also a scant number of “independent” vassal states that have retained some degrees of autonomy.

Within the small Empire vassal state of Elkorad, the industry workers have fought a long fight for better labor conditions with very little success and the on-going battle is looking like it will go down in favor of the wealthy industrialists once more. But one of the union leaders isn’t ready to let them win without one last plea to their sense of humanity. And to “his” surprise the factory owner welcomes him to a final negotiation. Unfortunately it’s all a ruse.

The factory owner reveals that there’ll be no more negotiations and that the union leader will be disposed of, as he pushes our eggtagonist into a large vat of volatile oil. The same oil that humans have extracted from underneath the earth for hundreds of years. Unbeknownst to either of them however, long -time exposure to the exhaust, fumes and direct contact with this red-sheened oil has had curious effects on humanity that only recently started to manifest in obvious ways. Scant reports of mutations have been seen in newspapers but very little has been established as facts. 

As the union leader fights to stay alive, the overwhelming saturation of oil around him ignites his latent mutations and he feels vigor and vitality energize him as he starts changing underneath the surface of the oil vat. It’s like a dream is realized while his body quakes and warps into what “he” now knows it should have always been like.

The vat blows up and from its greasy carcass rises a gorgeous woman with slit pupils, glowing irises, sharp long ears and talons for nails. The sight strikes the factory owner in awe before the lady walks up to him and uses her true powers to instill some long overdue respect for his workers into him…

A year later and the factory is the safest and most productive in all of Elkorad. The factory owner still rus the show, but for some reason, all his decrees and proclamations of change are announced in a slow and trance-like manner. And no matter where he went, he was accompanied by an imposing and dominant lady who people occasionally noticed whispered in his ears.
